Located in the southwestern part of the Dominican Republic, Duvergé is an important city in the province of Independencia and is situated on the southern shore of the Lake Enriquillo basin. The city has a predominantly agrarian economy, with bananas, coffee and animal husbandry in the surrounding area, while retaining a strong rural Caribbean flavor.
Duverge is adjacent to Lake Enriquillo, the largest saltwater lake in the Caribbean, which is home to unique species such as flamingos and American crocodiles. The city is surrounded by dry forests, creating a unique semi-arid ecosystem, and nearby nature reserves such as Laguna Oviedo, making it an ideal location for ecotourism and birdwatching.
A traditional Dominican farming town, Duverge has retained its Spanish colonial architecture and local folklore. Residents are known for their warm hospitality and local festivals are held annually to showcase Dominican music, dance and craft traditions. The city's relaxed pace of life makes it an excellent destination for experiencing the authenticity of the Caribbean countryside.
